For me, the issue is more about how I'm treated because of the size of my body...........although I wish I didn't carry as much weight on my face, I'm reasonably happy with how my body looks and I never look in the mirror and think I look disgusting. I'm confident enough to wear pretty much whatever I want and I have a loving husband who thinks I'm gorgeous whatever size I am. However, I wish I could go to the Doctor and not have whatever issue I'm there about reduced to a weight thing and I wish I could open a magazine or newspaper without seeing some example of fat shaming.
I love my body whatever size it is, I just wish our society would treat fat people like human beings rather than a problem that needs to be solved *sigh*

It's been a rollercoaster for me. There have been times when I really enjoy it and then times that I didn't. I guess it all just depends on what else is going on in my life. In the last year though, I can say that I've really enjoyed it. I feel more comfortable with myself and my body more consistently now. I hope it continues to be that way.

This is important to me as well..I agree with the fat shaming issues I cannot stand how it is perfectly acceptable for people to point out how 'fat' I am and get away with it...I mean yeah thanks for your civic duty in saying ' you are disgusting and gross only saying that cause I care about your health." It has taken me years ot accept me for me...not sure i am there yet..but the society does not promote acceptance based on the person and that can throw blocks our way. xo

I'd have to admit I like being fat, mostly because obesity has had such great fringe benefits for me. It's forced me to think creatively and independently, it's taught me to see what is and is not truly important in life, and it make me feel big and powerful yet soft and feminine. Every day I thank goodness to live in a country where I have the luxury to be as fat as I am and enjoy such a great quality of life. Methinx my fat has made me a better person.

And of course when my husband massages me, it takes a loooong time. Despite the occasional hassles and challenges of living with obesity, my fat just feels so right.

As a transgender gal that is fat I have to say that hope my post will be accepted and met favorably. I fully enjoy that I am fat and wouldn't take a skinny pill ever. I like how the female hormones I take have curved me out as I have gained. I will continue to gain and see how I develop. Right now I weigh 291 and feel fine carrying it.I hope to go into the mid 300 lb range as of now. I have posted a pic of myself that I hope will be liked!
